From
one
of
these
fits
of
torpor
he
was
aroused
by
the
entrance
of
Annie
Hovenden
,
who
came
into
the
shop
with
the
freedom
of
a
customer
,
and
also
with
something
of
the
familiarity
of
a
childish
friend
.
She
had
worn
a
hole
through
her
silver
thimble
,
and
wanted
Owen
to
repair
it
.
"
But
I
don
’
t
know
whether
you
will
condescend
to
such
a
task
,
"
said
she
,
laughing
,
"
now
that
you
are
so
taken
up
with
the
notion
of
putting
spirit
into
machinery
.
"
"
Where
did
you
get
that
idea
,
Annie
?
"
said
Owen
,
starting
in
surprise
.
"
Oh
,
out
of
my
own
head
,
"
answered
she
,
"
and
from
something
that
I
heard
you
say
,
long
ago
,
when
you
were
but
a
boy
and
I
a
little
child
.
But
come
,
will
you
mend
this
poor
thimble
of
mine
?
"
"
Anything
for
your
sake
,
Annie
,
"
said
Owen
Warland
,
—
"
anything
,
even
were
it
to
work
at
Robert
Danforth
’
s
forge
.
"
"
And
that
would
be
a
pretty
sight
!
"
retorted
Annie
,
glancing
with
imperceptible
slightness
at
the
artist
’
s
small
and
slender
frame
.
"
Well
;
here
is
the
thimble
.
"
"
But
that
is
a
strange
idea
of
yours
,
"
said
Owen
,
"
about
the
spiritualization
of
matter
.
"
And
then
the
thought
stole
into
his
mind
that
this
young
girl
possessed
the
gift
to
comprehend
him
better
than
all
the
world
besides
.
And
what
a
help
and
strength
would
it
be
to
him
in
his
lonely
toil
if
he
could
gain
the
sympathy
of
the
only
being
whom
he
loved
!
To
persons
whose
pursuits
are
insulated
from
the
common
business
of
life
—
who
are
either
in
advance
of
mankind
or
apart
from
it
—
there
often
comes
a
sensation
of
moral
cold
that
makes
the
spirit
shiver
as
if
it
had
reached
the
frozen
solitudes
around
the
pole
.
What
the
prophet
,
the
poet
,
the
reformer
,
the
criminal
,
or
any
other
man
with
human
yearnings
,
but
separated
from
the
multitude
by
a
peculiar
lot
,
might
feel
,
poor
Owen
felt
.
"
Annie
,
"
cried
he
,
growing
pale
as
death
at
the
thought
,
"
how
gladly
would
I
tell
you
the
secret
of
my
pursuit
!
You
,
methinks
,
would
estimate
it
rightly
.
You
,
I
know
,
would
hear
it
with
a
reverence
that
I
must
not
expect
from
the
harsh
,
material
world
.
"
"
Would
I
not
?
to
be
sure
I
would
!
"
replied
Annie
Hovenden
,
lightly
laughing
.
